More than 1100 companies applied in Missouri to be licensed to sell medical cannabis, this past Thursday they announced the 192 companies that were approved - more additions may be made as late as Monday (2/27/2020).
A small step forward but unfortunately it's all about the money the government can grab from cannabis.
